LNG
U.S. Notches Up Record LNG Exports in November - U.S. liquefied natural gas (LNG) exports hit an all-time monthly high in November for the second straight month, driven by cooler weather and robust output from the country's two largest producers, preliminary data from financial firm LSEG showed on Monday. The U.S. shipped 10.9 million metric tons (mmt) last month, up from 10.1 mmt in October despite having one fewer day in the month, according to LSEG data. LNG plants typically operate more efficiently in cooler conditions, and average temperatures along the Gulf Coast were about 8 degrees Fahrenheit lower in November than in October, according to the U.S. National Weather Service.

MISO to Fast-Track Reviews of 15 Power Projects - The Midcontinent Independent System Operator (MISO) said on Monday that it will fast-track reviews of 15 more power projects to accelerate the addition of electricity supply. MISO's second round of project selections includes seven natural gas-fired plants, three battery storage projects, three solar projects and two windfarms, according to the grid operator.
